ActionScript 2.0 :: Lightsaber Turns On When Push The Button
Sep 24, 2005
im trying to make a lightsaber that when you push the button, the lightsaber turns on, and then when you push it again, it turns off. There are three frames in this animation. It starts out with just the handle on frame one and by frame 3 the beam gets to its full size. Right now, the light saber will start out with the beam completely out and when you click the button, the beam will go down and then back up and stay there. This is the actionscript i have so far,
I created a class that turns a movieclip into a clickable button. But for some reason it only works on one of my movie clips and not the others, even tho the other movieclips were created as duplicates. It saying that its a null object Below is my code for the class.
I tried to add to my flash two button like en_btn and fr_btn. I want that if i push the en_btn then private var xmlURL:String = 'xml/main.xml'; change private var xmlURL:String = 'xml/en_main.xml';
I have made this little thing, its more or less just to try out some basic scripting, its a button that you would push and when you do so it would play a random sound out of six different sounds, and it does all that, but it delays the sound, so it has a short delay, does anyone know how to fix this? Here is a link to the page where the button is (test page).[URL]...
I am working on a Flash Player for my radio station and I am now trying to add a push + and - for the volume and I cannot figure out how to do it. Everything I have run across in my search has been a slider and that is not what I am looking for. Below is the action script from the player.
Code: // Setup sound object var s:Sound = new Sound();
i do flash at university and im pretty good with it. all im trying to do is push a movie clip when a button is pressed. pretty basic right? but it just doesnt appear the round in the movie clip plays just tha actual movie clip doesnt appear, its not hiding bejind the scene cos i have moved the whole scene and it still doesnt appear where it should. here is the code
I obviously don't understand arrays very well. I want to cycle through the content of an array by the push of a button. The dynamic text field registers the variable "aar", because when I preview this it displays "item1". When I then hit the button, the variable "i" is increased by 1, the dynamic field with the variable "i" shows this, but the dynamic field with the variable "aar" is not updated to the next array-item. This code is in the first frame, with no stop(); code in the file at all.. Why doesnt this code work?
Code: aar = new Array(); aar[0]="item1" aar[1]="item2" aar[2]="item3"
I have a class in which I have declared an array. The functions in that class are designed to make changes to the array, but it's not working:
[Code]...
Anything I do to customerCheck treats it as if it were a new array. This is especially obvious when using customerCheck.push in addCharToCheck() -- the trace always shows a blank array before push and an array with one object in it after the push... then next time it does the same. I know I'm making some sort of fundamental error regarding the scope of the array within the class but I just cannot find any good information on how to fix it! Moving to AS3 (been coding it for all of about 3 weeks) is a nightmare so far, and it seems to be the 'easy' stuff that causes me problems
I've got a huge survey I've made with lots and lots of groups of radio buttons. There are maybe 60 questions with 6 buttons each. Of these, I have a couple of groups that are really misbehaving. What's happening is for one question, the first button in the group seems independent of the rest. That is, I can check the first radio button and it never turns off when clicking others in the same group.
All my code is right. I'm using the exact same code with all the other groups and only two groups aren't working right. Ha. That's the funny thing, though, because everything works fine IN Flash, but publishing to a web page, these two groups stop working right.FWIW, I've set the first instance of the radio button with a name like "G10" then all the buttons in the group have the group name "Q10".I've tried several ways of fixing this including deleting the whole group and adding them again, copying a working group and renaming the parts. Nothing. The one thing that has worked (and don't ask me why) but adding a new single radio button with a new instance and group name has fixed other problem groups but not these two.
I want to implement having a movie clip randomly change color.How can I make my movie clip randomly switch colors with a push of a button??By the way I'm using flash MX and I am still intermediate when it comes to coding.
I would like to know if there is a way to make a flash movie that sends information straight to my email with the push of a button. Is it possible? Can it be done without knowledge of the person? I want to have a poll, and calculate the votes by hand, or eye, I suppose. I just don't want to have to set up a server of any kind.
I've been using flash for a whopping 3 days now, and I've stumbled onto a problem that I can't seem to find a way around. I'm using flash 4, due to the fact that #1 it's all I've got, and #2 the new flash mx 6 won't run on the old ass computer I'm using. This is my problem: I import a .bmp image and edit it in flash to make portions of it animated. The image is a symbol (I think it has to be anyway to animate it...) Everything runs fine when I use the basic play/rewind buttons to test the animiation, but when I make it into an executable, or when I go to the menu and hit "Test Movie", the image shows up as a red square. The animation I added still runs, but the actual image I imported is a red square.
I would like a function to run when a user clicks anywhere on stage. But this function should not run when the click is on buttons & on url:s inside a dynamic html-formated textfield. How can I detect this? I do realise that the cursor turns to a hand when you hoover over a url inside a textfield & you can set the hand to appear on buttons as well (which i always set it to do). So is there a way in realtime to detect when the cursor is & is not a hand? I've tried the following:
Code: btn_mc.buttonMode = true; stage.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN,down) function down(E:MouseEvent)
I am trying to load html into a text box from a website. when i load to the text box, everything goes fine except that it is loaded as something that looks like this:
Flash CS4. When I enter a movie clip to edit the timeline the pasteboard turns to the color of the stage. The result: I can't see the edges of my stage. This is only within the MC. And only within one particular MC (I created another one and the pasteboard stayed 4% gray). When I take the content in the bad MC (via copy frames) and move it to the good one, the same thing happens: Pasteboard turns to the color of the stage. I've tried SFT-CTL-ALT double click. No luck. Strangely, this isn't happening in every FLA. I know it must have something to do with the content on that timeline, but what that is I have no idea.
I'm trying to make an array with different color values. My problem is that when I do... teamColor[i] = currentColor... All color values in my array turn into the currentColor. (I would upload more code, but that would be a massive mess, considering that I have code everywhere with references from movie clips that are as far as 3 layers deep. However, this would be irrelevant anyways (probably), because I tested this with color values on my main timeline, without any references to or from anything deeply nested). I would like to add that I tried adding strings in there and that the strings remained their original, intended, value, while the color exhibited the same phenomenon.
I changed my code by creating separate variables for each color instead of putting the variables into an array (not what I really wanted to do, but it works). My code looks like this: if (teamColor != 0) { this["team"+teamColor+"Color"] = new ColorTransform(0,0,0,1,currentColor.redOffset,currentColor.greenOffset,currentColor.blueOffset,) teamColor = 0 namebox.addboxes()//function in a movieclip }
TeamColor is now an int that is changed based on which box a user clicks from a movie clip that has a dynamically generated name, based off of what the variable value in a loop was when it was created. (E.G: 'tempboxname[ttns].name = i;') teamColor is then equal to that name when the user clicks it. I have another movieclip with colors in it and the above function is called to check if any teamColor change has occurred, and if it has, act accordingly. (The idea of having teamColor equal to 0 is so that if the user clicks twice, nothing changes. I other conditionals for other colors, all within the same function). That is how I fixed me code. It's not what I wanted, because it's not an array (meaning a seemingly infinite number of teamColors, and thus, teams) but it'll do for me.
i want to create an mp3 player with volume ,frequency, bass, treble and speed knobs any pointers to any scripts that might help me would be great, but at the moment i am just trying to work out how to make a knob that turns.I assume i would use drag over and some kind of rotation function.
Basically, I have a button that when moused over it makes rivers go to 50% opacity (they start at 10%), then when clicked they go to 100%. What I want: Then the rivers stay at 100% until the user clicks the button again. What is happening: Currently though the mouseout is fading the rivers back to 10%. I know that my code is telling it to do that and want to know how to make it stop.
Here is my code for this: function shipMouseOver(event:MouseEvent):void { Tweener.addTween(rivers_mc, {alpha: 1, time:2}); Tweener.addTween(this.dashboard_mc.ship_btn, {alpha: 1, time:2}); } function shipMouseOut(event:MouseEvent):void { [Code] .....
I have a whole heap of circles which are user created and they all bounce off one another. Generally it works fine but occasionally two balls join together and sort of .. orbit each other.
my collision code is this: (it's within two loops going through an array of movie clips, where mc1 is the current movie clip in the first loop and mc2 is the current movie clip within the second loop)
ActionScript Code: dx = mc1._x-mc2._x dy = mc1._y-mc2._y
In our application, we are using a Microphone object, that is published to a server (via NetStream).The recording works well.But unfortunately, while the microphone is active and the NetConnection+NetStream remain, all other audio from inside the flash application (and I guess other active flash applications as well, at least it does it with grooveshark) has its volume turned down.This is completely against the flow of our flash application, as you have to hear certain sounds clearly while speaking into the microphone.How can this turning down of the volume be disabled?
I'm interested in coming up with a flipbook which turn to another page, with a "turn page" animation. Exacly like what they did for Fullerton, at this URL...I got a great reply from JCS (thanx again dude!), who passed me a fla where they came out with a flip book, but you'll have to manually drag the page frm one page to another. Technically this flip book is more superior, as the user can flip the book manually, and it looks very very cool, but the thing is, there doens't seem to be a way to flip all the way to the last page withouth going through all the pages in between, and that sucks, as imagine that the document has like 50 pages!. BTW, the file in JCS sent can be downloaded here.URL...So basically, I want to modify the script to enable the the page to turn automatically when clicked, instead of having to drag the page.
I'm extending VideoPlayer and it's been working fine for weeks - all of a sudden it's gone berserk on me. I create a few instances and I'm passing different dimensions to each but new instances are using the size of the largest instance so far...as though the height/width had somehow turned static...?Here's the pertinent code:
[URL]I have published my site but when i upload it to my server and go to view it gets smaller on the screen,i have tried to attach html but it wont upload.please help its driving me crazy and its my first time trying to do this
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd"> <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" lang="en" xml:lang="en"> <head> <title>~~main9_v4</title>
I have a flash intro and when ever I preview it,the intro background turns to black instead of staying the way it should be.Can somebody please help me out here,I need this flash intro for a website.Please explain this to me in simple terms because im pretty NEW to adobe.
Note I've tried everything to make the flash background stay the way it was but nothing I do works.
This seems pretty weird even for Adobe standards. I've set up size of the movie to be 1024x768, which is the resolution of ipad screen in landscape. The stage looks ok but when I publish the swf it goes into portrait mode.
I even used this line of code but it doesn't help.
I'm running CS5.5 on an intel Mac 10.6.5, and I have been having problems encoding to flv. All my videos are edited the same way, and using the same formats etc., yet recently I have found that when converting to .flv, some will work fine, and others will have the audio replaced by white noise.
Checking through the video specs, it appears that the one difference is that the ones which worked fine are all Apple ProRes 422 HQ files, and the ones which failed are Apple 10bit Uncompressed. The strange thing is the audio is the same for both. Yet when the encode problem happens, the video for both is fine, its just the audio where the problem appears.
I've got a two year old site (ww.pantelco.be/coaching.html) and something odd happened today. I had to change something in the fla, tested the swf and uploaded it to the server. When I test the swf in flash or just open it manually, all is fine, texts are okay.But whenever it's in a htmlpage (using swfobject), all the multiline textfields turn from horizontal to vertical expanding text, so a large column of 1 character. Even my backup site acts the same way. It's driving me crazy.
I installed a couple of new browsers a couple of days ago, and I remember I had to update my flashplayer. Maybe thsi is relevant? I just don't know. Texts are loaded through xmls - well, they load alright, but they don't show up the right way.
